SATAN PEAK 2640m 8661′
MOUNT DIABLO 2670m 8760′
BANSHEE PEAK 2730m 8957′
Both Satan Peak (east) and Banshee Peak (west) are spectacular. These three summits are about 1.6 km east of Chariot Peak, above Coven Lakes.
FA by a large KMC party, August 1974.
From Coven Lakes, head north and ascend the easterly of two gullies which lead to the upper plateau below the three peaks. The east ridge of Satan Peak is Class 3 except for 10 meters of roped climbing.
Descend the same route and scramble to the Diablo-Banshee col. Climb Diablo via the southwest ridge and Banshee by the northeast ridge (10 minutes between peaks). Four hours round trip from Coven Lakes.
Diablo and Banshee are a very long day’s trip from the parking lot; Devil’s Couch is probably too far.
Banshee is climbable by a blocky gully on the southwest face (low Class 5), done during the 2014 traverse.
